A Gibbs Sampler on the N-simplex
We determine the mixing time of a simple Gibbs sampler on the unit simplex, confirming a conjecture of D. Aldous. The upper bound is based on a two-step coupling, where the first step is a simple contraction argument and the second step is a non-Markovian coupling. We also present a MCMC-based perfect sampling algorithm that is based on our proof and which can be applied to Gibbs samplers that ...
متن کاملA Gibbs Sampler for Learning DAGs
We propose a Gibbs sampler for structure learning in directed acyclic graph (DAG) models. The standard Markov chain Monte Carlo algorithms used for learning DAGs are random-walk Metropolis-Hastings samplers. These samplers are guaranteed to converge asymptotically but often mix slowly when exploring the large graph spaces that arise in structure learning. In each step, the sampler we propose dr...
متن کاملa study on thermodynamic models for simulation of 1,3 butadiene purification columns
attempts have been made to study the thermodynamic behavior of 1,3 butadiene purification columns with the aim of retrofitting those columns to more energy efficient separation schemes. 1,3 butadiene is purified in two columns in series through being separated from methyl acetylene and 1,2 butadiene in the first and second column respectively. comparisons have been made among different therm...
Geometry of random (-1/+1)-polytopes A survey of recent results on random {−1, 1}-polytopes in Asymptotic Convex Analysis
Random {−1, 1}-polytopes demonstrate extremal behavior with respect to many geometric characteristics.
متن کاملPhyloGibbs: A Gibbs Sampler Incorporating Phylogenetic Information
We present a new Gibbs sampler algorithm with the motivation of finding motifs, representing candidate binding sites for transcription factors, in closely related species. Since much conservation here arises not from the existence of functional sites but simply from the lack of sufficient evolutionary divergence between the species, a conventional Gibbs sampler will fail. We compare the effecti...
